Look Up & Learn

by Jenni Bevis-Lacey

OK. We know. It is lockdown again and frankly many are struggling. It is grey and cold and easy to feel rather flat.
We want to make things better for you here at One Community.

So, if you are running a voluntary organisation or charity you and your awesome people might like to raise their sights and learn some new skills.

The level of training we are offering on ZOOM is superb and if you want to give yourselves an uplift by learning something new or getting more practice on something you know a bit about already- check out the courses listed.

Look up and Learn Poster

Our training manager Hayley Hamlett would love to take your bookings. Email her hhamlett@1community.org.uk or call 01329 239 934

We’re on a Trustee hunt.. I’m not scared!

by Jenni Bevis-Lacey

Yes, just like the famous Michael Rosen classic we are going on a trustee hunt.

…..We have gone through the swishy swoshy grass….

…..through the squelchy mud……

and we are yet to find the person to be our new trustee!

Maybe you are that person? One Community is a cracking local charity to people in the Eastleigh and Fareham areas that does massive amounts of good.

Now you aren’t home educating or are hanging on in furlough,  perhaps you would like to give back a bit to the charity that helped so many over lockdown? You could volunteer for us or go for sharing your experiences & expertise as a trustee.

For an informal chat ring 023 8090 2400 or email info@1community.org.uk

Volunteer made masks.

by Jenni Bevis-Lacey

Do you know anyone who may make some masks? If you know a person who could make us some masks to give for a donation at Eastleigh Museum, please send them our way.

We would like to help people in our community who cannot access masks easily.

If you have some to give us, please bring them to Eastleigh Museum- our local community hub.

There is an article about it in today’s Southern Echo HERE.

Volunteer dog walker

by Jenni Bevis-Lacey

Yes!

We are looking for a volunteer dog walker to help a person in Hedge End with their older, sweet tempered terrier cross.

At this time the owner is unable to walk the dog and has asked for help. The dog will need to be walked on a 1:1 basis as is nervous around other dogs.

As with all our volunteering services, full COVID-19 safety guidance will be given.

If you yourself or you know someone who could volunteer their time to help, please email: volunteer@1community.org.uk or ring 023 8090 2400

Birthday Suprise

by Jenni Bevis-Lacey

One of our people living in the local community aged 94, told us about our volunteer who does her shopping.

She said: “The lovely young boy [he’s over 50] asked me, while we were chatting, when my birthday was. I said a man shouldn’t ask a lady things like that and laughed it off. He came back with a birthday card and a cake, and said it was my birthday today! It’s the nicest thing to happen since this started.”
